Dallas weather: Record high temperature broken Monday, Tuesday record also at risk

Nothing says North Texas quite like temperatures in the 90s in February!

We set a record on Monday and expect to do so again on Tuesday, though they will fall short of the all-time February high of 96 degrees.

Monday Forecast: 107-year-old record falls, fire risk

It's time to test out that A/C!

DFW Airport reached 91 degrees at 1:07 p.m., breaking a century-old record. But it didn't stop there.

The previous record, 90, was set in 1917.

Temperatures at DFW Airport on Monday eventually climbed to 94 degrees by Monday afternoon.

93 degrees is the third-hottest February temperature of all time at DFW.

North Texans enjoy a taste of summer in February

With the heat and dry ground, there is a grass fire risk as well.

There is a high fire danger in Fort Worth and to the west. 

Tuesday Forecast: More record heat ahead

Things will be a bit cooler on Tuesday than they were on Monday, but it is still going to be hot.

High temperatures at DFW are expected to reach 88 degrees.

That's well above the previous Feb. 27 record of 85 degrees, which was set in 1918.

Clouds will keep things from being as hot as Monday.

7-Day Forecast: Plunge ahead

Get your summer fix while you can, because things will change quickly.

After Monday and Tuesday, temperatures will plunge.

A cold front will move through North Texas sending temperatures tumbling.

Temperatures on Wednesday morning will only be in the 40s and the high temperature will only be 54! That's nearly a 40-degree drop from Monday's high.

A storm system that is currently off the coast of California will move into the DFW area on Thursday.

There is a 40 percent chance of some chilly rain on Thursday.
